Equistro® Legaphyton is a liver support supplement containing Siliphos®, an easily absorbable compound derived from milk thistle, developed to promote liver health.
Infectious diseases, parasites, medicines, poisoning from plants or fungi, and many other factors can negatively impact liver health. Equistro® Legaphyton helps combat symptoms associated with these, such as emaciation, colic-like pain, manifestations of neurological deficits, and jaundice. Its combination of Siliphos® and highly digestible carbohydrates protects the liver from exposure to protein degradation and compensates nutrient imbalances. Equistro® Legaphyton is formulated in a water-soluble granule form, which can easily be mixed into feed.
